Meet the Asia Pacific Foundation of Canada’s 2026-27 cohort of Canada-Asia Young Professionals Fellows. This group of current students and young professionals from across Canada is interested in understanding and advancing Canada’s relationships with the countries and peoples of Asia.
APF Canada looks forward to working with this year’s Fellows over the course of this nine-month program as together we explore the issues and debates related to Canada’s evolving and deepening engagement with the economies of the Indo-Pacific.
The Canada-Asia Young Professionals Fellows program welcomes young Canadians interested in the peoples, politics, issues, and ideas of Asia – a region growing in strategic importance and global influence – to explore future opportunities for participation in this annual initiative of APF Canada.
